Abstract

According to the method for detecting optical properties, especially luminescence reactions and refraction behaviour of molecules (14) which are directly or indirectly bound on a support (12), electromagnetic waves, especially laser light (26), are radiated onto the support. The light that is emitted or refracted by the molecules is then detected by a detector (28). The detector and the support are moved in relation to each other during and after the radiation of the electromagnetic waves. The support used is especially a transparent support with integrated position markings (20) which can be detected by a detector, especially an optoelectronic scanning system. At least one of the integrated position markings is selected while the support and the detector are being moved in relation to each other or thereafter so that the light that is detected by the detector can be associated with a location on the support. A device for carrying out the method is provided with a detector, especially an optoelectronic scanning system, for detecting the position markings that are integrated in the support.
